On Tuesday, June 10, 2025, at approximately 12:00 PM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Josiah Gathing met with Licensee Danelle Ingalls, for the purpose of a complaint investigation and to deliver findings. It was alleged that a staff member held children in place to force them to sleep, staff made children walk barefoot on hot pavement as punishment, and that children were given melatonin for sleep without parent notification. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA conducted interviews, reviewed documents, and made observations.

Staff stated in interview that children always wear shoes outdoors except during water activities. Staff stated that children were never made to walk on hot pavement without shoes. Staff stated in interview that there was a child enrolled approximately five years ago who was given a sleep aid at nap time per parent request. During record review, LPA observed an unsubstantiated complaint report from May 7, 2020 showing that there was not sufficient evidence to prove or disprove that children were given a sleep aid.

Children stated in interview that teachers put them on time-out if they did something bad. Children stated in interview that they were not given medicine at school and staff helped them sleep by turning on music or patting or rubbing children's backs.
Parents stated in interview that they do not know how staff addresses children having trouble sleeping.

Although the alleged violations may have happened or are valid, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met to fully prove or disprove that they did or did not occur, therefore, they are unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a notice of site visit provided. Notice of site visit shall remain posted for 30 days.
